Summary

I frequently get questions from moms and recently I received an email with some concerns a mom had about her 9-year-old son who is giving her and her husband a lot of grief. So today I’m going to dive into her concerns and questions and I think you’re going to find a lot of encouragement here! Next week I will continue the conversation about child training and discipline because the truth is that unless we are really engaging that part of our role in our kids' lives, we will find our homeschooling journey much, much more difficult. It really can make all the difference! By training and teaching our kids what God thinks about everything, we are giving them a biblical worldview and helping them get to know who God is so that they can learn to hear his voice when he speaks to them. So whatever situations they are in throughout their lives they can stop and ask “How would God want me to respond to this?” and they’ll know the answer because they know their God!

Hey moms. Welcome to this episode of the Dorenda Wilson podcast. I'm really glad you're here with me today.

0:16.8

We are going to be talking about taming the toad in our kids. Now, I know your kids don't have

0:22.6

attitudes. You're just here for the fun of it. So totally theoretical. No, this doesn't happen

0:28.4

at your house, right? Well, how I'm going to be addressing this is I'm going to be addressing

0:34.5

a couple of questions that I've received from moms that have to do with their kids' attitudes. And I'm going to be addressing a couple of questions that I've received from moms that have

0:38.2

to do with their kids' attitudes. And I'm just kind of sharing some things that came to mind as I was

0:45.7

thinking about how to answer these questions. And it's just such a commonality amongst

0:52.0

every parent that we are all going to run into a certain amount of

0:57.5

attitude from our kids. And so the question is, how do we deal with it? Because quite frankly,

1:03.2

if homeschooling is going to go well for us, we really do need to have a certain amount of

1:10.4

order in our home and a certain amount of authority in our home

1:13.5

and definitely be, you know, setting boundaries with our kids because it's just mayhem otherwise.

1:20.7

So I'm going to talk a little bit about that and about quite a few other things.

1:25.1

But before I do that, I want to tell you about my three books. I've got

1:28.7

the Unhurried Homestooler, which is a simple, mercifully short book on homeschooling. You can find

1:33.2

that on Amazon or my website, Duranda Wilson.com. Unhurried Grace for a mom's heart. If you need a

1:39.6

devotional, this one might be a really good fit for you. It is really written specifically to homeschool moms,

1:47.6

and it's just a compilation of passages that the Lord brought me back to over and over again and showed me some really great things in how to apply these scriptures to mothering and homeschooling.

2:00.5

So that's called Unhurried Grace for Mom's Heart.

2:02.7

That is also at my website and on Amazon. And finally, last year in 2021, I published a book

2:09.7

with Zondervand called The Four Hour School Day, How You and Your Kids Can Thrive in the Homeschool Life.

2:14.8

And this book is based on my 25 years of experience homeschooling
